Grow
Gainesville, a project of Slow Food Gainesville will soon launch a community
seed library! This is a physical place where seeds will be stored and saved for
community use. Gardeners can donate their excess seed
and surplus saved from the garden to the library and also "check
out" seeds donated by other local gardeners. Over time this will create a
viable local seed source for our region. Bulk purchases of locally appropriate
seeds will also be made, making these seeds readily available to everyone at
little to no cost. Stay tuned for more information. If you're super excited
like we are can't wait to learn more or get involved, send us an email:
growgainesville@gmail.com. If you're an avid gardener, join the amazing
discussions onFacebook. We
promise you'll learn something and make great connections.
